Not going to bother reading through the review (sorry) but I'm super glad this album is getting good publicity.

Great review man. I love the whole album but if every song was as good as the first 3 tracks it would be the greatest album of all time.

1. "I Want Wind To Blow" / "The Glow pt. 2"
2. "Needle In the Hay" / "Christian Brothers" - Elliott Smith
3. "Dead Flag Blues" / "East Hastings" - actually many GYBE could fit here really
4. "Exit Music" / "Let Down" - Radiohead
5. "Interview at the Ruins" / "Non-Objective..." - CTTS


^^^
some best song pairs on albums imo... there's more obviously but The Glow Pt. 2 openers stick out in my mind.

The Glow Pt. 2 never comes close to reaching the orgasmic heights presented in the first two songs.



I see why you think this, and I agree that they are two of the best on the album, but there are many of other highlights just as strong, at times even stronger (imo).



This was an excellent read, Eric, I'm really glad you made contributor. Have a pos.

ps: I just recently made this a 5 and I too haven't looked back on it yet!
